it back, thats labor.

Have you any pillow cases?

1908INTERESTING MELANGE. A Chronological Record of Events as they have
Transpired in the City and County since our last Issue.

FRISCO AND PACIFIC
CLASH

Passengers on the 7:40 a.m. train
Sunday from the north did not reach here until noon. They
had been delayed at Lamar by a wreck on the Missouri
Pacific and Gulf or Frisco crossing. There the north
bound Pacific train which leaves here about 3 a.m. had
been run into by a Frisco freight, both attempting to
make the crossing at once. An engine and tender were
literally demolished and wrecked coaches were piled up in
great profusion.

The north bound 9:50 train Sunday
morning went only to Lamar, transferred its passengers to
a train on the other side, and in turn took passengers
from the delayed 7:40 and brought them here at noon. The
division superintendent of the Missouri Pacific is said
to have been badly hurt, there were no other injuries
reported from the incident.

The Carthage Mandolin Club gave another
popular dance last night at the armory hall. The event
was well attended.

I grew up hearin Mom say
Dad didnt like ta stand in lines
cause of all his line standin
durin WWII. I seriously dout he liked it
much before he joined the Air Corp.

Whats really
aggravatin is to stand in a long line just
to find out you get to take a number, then wait
some more till youre called. I suppose
seein those long lines in front of a
theater must mean folks think its worth the
wait.

Those who camp out on the
sidewalk just to get tickets to some event have
always been a curiousity, Ive done some
campin. but usually out in the woods.

The universal rule of
havin to go to the end of the line if ya
cut in is taken seriously by those campers
Id guess.

This is some fact, but mostly,

Just Jake Talkin.
